User manual DEWALT D26451

[. . . ] ⷠStore idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. ⷠCheck for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. ⷠUse only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. [. . . ] Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W. " These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and overheating. All DEWALT tools are factory tested; if this tool does not operate, check the power supply. Your sander is designed to use 5" (127mm) sanding discs with an 8-hole dust extraction pattern. 2) CAUTION: Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attachments or accessories. With the other hand, align the holes and place the disc directly on top of the pad. The hooks on the pad will wear very rapidly if left in contact with the work surface while the tool is operating. To turn the unit on, depress the side of the dust-protected switch (A) that corresponds to the symbol "I". To turn the tool off, depress the side of the switch that corresponds to the symbol "O". The speed control dial (B), shown in Figure 1, allows you to increase or decrease speed from 7, 000­12, 000 Orbits Per Minute. The optimal speed setting for each application is very much dependent on personal preference. Generally, you will want to use a higher setting on harder materials and a lower setting on softer materials. CAUTION: Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attachments or accessories. Your sander has two dust collection methods: a twist-on dust collection bag (D) and a built-in vac-adapter (E) which can be hooked directly to a shop vaccum system. [. . . ] To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement parts. DEWALT will repair, without charge, any defects due to faulty materials or workmanship for three years from the date of purchase. This warranty does not cover part failure due to normal wear or tool abuse. For further detail of warranty coverage and warranty repair information, visit www. [. . . ]
